Absolute nightmare.
The absolute nightmare will be Australia’s post COVID-19 labor laws.
If you think ScoMo and his merry band of conservatives are throwing money at the working class without expecting a quid pro quo when it’s time to rebuild the economy then it’s time for a reality check. EBA’s will become the exception with many companies unable to pay even the Award. Hiring and firing rules will be relaxed to the point of being irrelevant.
The Coalition is probably the best party to lead the government right now but the workers paradise that Australia used to be is probably gone for a very long time. It’ll make Jeff Kennett’s rebuild of Victoria in the 90’s look like a picnic.
